2018年CRI Credit-based rules into effect for better car fuel efficiency

 

Chinese authorities have enacted¹ a new regulation for car makers² from April 1.

All domestic and foreign auto³ makers that operate in China now run under a two-credit system, which consists of the index of Car Average Fuel Consumption - or CAFC - and the index of New Energy Vehicle - or NEV.

CAFC measures the overall fuel consumption level of cars one company produces or imports while NEV calculates the proportion of new energy cars one company owns.

If either credit doesn't meet the criteria⁴, the non-compliant company has to buy credits from other car makers that have extra credits.

Failure to meet the new guidelines could result in production or import cutbacks of an automaker's vehicles that are less fuel efficient.

The implementation⁵ of the credit system is designed to improve the fuel efficiency of traditional fuel vehicles, as well as to promote the deployment⁶ of new energy vehicles in China.

For more on this, CRI's Shane Bigham spoke⁷ with Einar Tangen, CRI business analyst⁸.
